# Tootify 🦋→🐘

An experimental Bluesky-to-Mastodon cross-poster

## What does it do
7
8
-
Tootify will allow you to do a selective one-way sync of Bluesky posts to your Mastodon account.

10
The way it works lets you easily pick which skeets you want to turn into toots: it scans your recent posts and checks which of them you have liked yourself, and only those posts are reposted. The self-like is automatically removed afterwards.

Note: this is an early version so it might be a bit unstable and rough – but I've been using it for a few months and some other people have tried it too and it generally works.

## Configs
53
+
54
+
Tootify stores configs and data in the `config` folder:
55
+
56
+
* `bluesky.yml` – created when you log in, stores Bluesky user ID/password and access tokens
57
+
* `mastodon.yml` – created when you log in, stores Mastodon user ID/password and access tokens
58
+
* `history.csv` – stores a mapping between Bluesky and Mastodon post IDs; used for reply references in threads
59
+
* `tootify.yml` - optional additional configuration
60
+
61
+
The config in `tootify.yml` currently supports one option:
62
+
63
+
- `extract_link_from_quotes: true` – if enabled, posts which are quotes of someone else's post which includes a link will be "collapsed" into a normal post that just includes that link directly without the quote (so the link card on Mastodon will show info about the link and not the quoted bsky.app post)
